Admission Qualifications for the Associate in Applied Science Degree (AAS)

All applicants to MJI must have successfully finished, or be in the process of finishing a high school/secondary school program or equivalent (GED) before beginning the desired semester of enrollment (see discussion on “Special Status” students in When to Apply for Admission section, above).

Admission requirements for the MJI Associate in Applied Science Degree – Business Information Systems (AAS-BIS) are the same as those for the Bachelor Degree. Therefore, students who successfully earn their AAS-BIS may elect to continue their studies and earn the Bachelor degree without requiring further application or admission.

Please see admission requirements for the Bachelor in Applied Science degree above and the alternate MJI residency requirement for the AAS-BIS degree described next.

Residency Requirements for AAS-BIS Degree

Transfer students seeking the AAS-BIS degree from the Michigan Jewish Institute must complete at least thirty semester credits of their AAS-BIS program in residency at the Institute. Students electing to continue their studies at MJI subsequent to earning their AAS-BIS degree must complete at least forty-five semester credits (inclusive of those earned toward to AAS-BIS degree) in residency at the Institute in order to earn a Bachelor degree. (Note: active-duty members of the U.S. military are only required to complete fifteen or thirty MJI credits to meet Associate or Bachelor degree residency requirements, respectively.)
